Making Playable DVD's from recorded stuff from Kodak Camera
Hello List! On our trip to the Philippines recently, my wife made several videos, with voice and everything, from her Kodak camera and kept the video on a flash drive that we have downloaded to our desktop. Now, I want to put the film/recorded video onto a regular DVD that will play in regular DVD machines. I have Nero, Real Player, Windows Media Player, and a Windows Media program that came on my HP desktop, but I am not sure I am ready to make such a DVD with those programs. Does anyone know of an easier and more accessible DVD making program that I can just copy the film to a layout and press a few keys and the product is burned onto a regular playing DVD that I can send back to my relatives in the Philippines to play during our reunion in September. I know I can play my normal DVD's on my PC, but I want to have them play on the DVD players they have over there.

Re: Problem with Mic routing input to speakers
The problem is the sound of the mike coming out of the speakers. And when he mutes it it won't record internally.

Re: my Cd's or dvd's will not play at all on my machine
Hello tony ro whoever may happen to be reading this. here's what's going on. You see, i can for example put in a dvd and manually bring up say, power dvd and i can play it. but what I'm wanting is for the power dvd to come up automatically. I've been told to check and see if Auto insert is abled. to my knoledge, I've never ever had any trouble with service pack III at all. In fact, when I installed the service pack III a few moons ago, it was still up and running. I just noticed it yesterday as a matter of fact when I was trying to do a repair of Jaws. but that's another topic. You do hear the drive sounding like a lamborghini star4ting up.

good enexpensive PC.mic
I'd like to spend $40 or less. I'm going to be using the mic only for speaking but I still want something close to broadcast quality. I know you can't get as good a sound with these little PC. mikes as you can with a $200 vocal mic, but some of them come pretty close. As I said, I once had a lab tech that sounded amazing and it was only about $6. I wish I could remember what one it was but its probably not made any more.

HI Joe what high end sound card to you have?

So that is why the question on the sound card and what are your likes and dislikes about it and do you think that you would still be able to get this card today or just maybe a different model of it but the same thing just newer cause yours maybe a bit older unless you have just recently gotten it?
